Lesson 6 : Pattern Maker
Programming 100 In puzzle modules 1-6, students will navigate a spaceship Actor on a gridded plane while solving drawing puzzles that include shapes, fractals, and a mountain range. Students will need to use the grid to determine how far to move the Actor and apply knowledge of angles to determine what angle to turn the Actor. Additionally, students explore creative concepts by coding their own designs in modules 7-8.

Lesson 6 : Pattern Maker
Programming 300
A starter course that introduces beginner students in middle school to programming concepts using Tynker
In this course, students get started with visual block coding, then move on to solving text-based coding problems in JavaScript and Python. Each lesson is designed for a class period of 45-60 minutes. Students learn on their own as they progress through interactive tutorials and coding puzzles, following along to build their own projects. In the first three lessons, students solve simple puzzles to learn the basics, build a 2-player game using the Tynker physics engine, and apply their coding knowledge to STEM subject areas. In the final two lessons, they move on to text coding in JavaScript and Python. All student work is automatically tracked and assessed, , JavaScript and Python.

Lesson 2 : Intro to Game Design
Programming 300
Students will create their very own 2-player game using the Tynker physics engine, which simulates gravity so that a projectile will move in an arc--just like it would in real life! The goal of the game is to use the cannon Actors to launch projectiles at given objects and knock them off the platform. Additionally, students are encouraged to customize their game (specified in Step 8/8 of the tutorial) by adding sound effects, changing the Actor's costumes, or creating more platforms.

Lesson 4 : Intro to JavaScript
Programming 300
Introduction
In this lesson, students will use JavaScript commands and for loops to complete coding puzzles that involve helping special agents Skyla and Nero reach a portal. Additionally, students will review important coding concepts such as comments, for loops, and indentation. As students work through the modules, they will gain a stronger mastery of JavaScript syntax, become better prepared for rigorous computer science.avaScript and Python.
